Pablo Mastroeni is optimistic about Real Salt Lake's growth as they aim for consistency in their upcoming match against FC Dallas. After a recent victory against Houston Dynamo, RSL is positioned ninth in the Western Conference. Mastroeni noted improvements in their defensive performance but is focused on maintaining control. Meanwhile, FC Dallas, struggling with form, is searching for their first victory since the season opener while dealing with the absence of their goalkeeper due to international duty. Homegrown player Michael Collodi looks forward to his first game in this challenging context.
Mastroeni emphasized the importance of reacting positively to mistakes, stating, "There's going to be mistakes, but I've told the guys, the main thing is how we react to that."
RSL's recent improvement was noted with Mastroeni saying, "To be fair to them, they've been doing a good job at dealing with turnovers on defence, and we did a much better job of that at Houston."
Dallas is seeking their first win since opening weekend, facing challenges with goalkeeper Maarten Paes on international duty, leaving Michael Collodi to step up and make his debut.
Collodi expressed his excitement about debuting, stating, "It will mean the world… I want to make the most of it and get a result for the boys."
